Supermarine Walrus Mk.I No. 700 Naval Air Squadron, 1941

Greetings to all. Herewith I'm presenting my first ever bi-plane. Not sure why I finally made the decision to start this build, because I'm not into building bi-planes at all, yet. But for some reason it did attract me although it is [...]

With this build, I continue my “love affair” with the Polish expatriate pilots of RAF 303 Sqdn (Poland) and their service to the U.K. during WWII. Following the Battle of Britain, and over time, the unit transitioned to various models [...]
